Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Kill Ball at none against New Star Baseball's shown. Kill Ball also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 54%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). New Star Baseball's advantage is ratings volume (3.8K vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
